Let’s look at one more example from Luke chapter 21:19, just one verse: ‘By standing firm, you will win true life for yourselves.’ Again, it’s Jesus speaking to the disciples and warning them of the troubles and the ordeals that they and their community, the people will have to go through in the future. But he gives them this radical reassurance, ‘By standing firm, [epimonÃa again, remaining there, persevering] you will win true life for yourselves.’
